Feedstock for Cadmium Fluoride

The production of cadmium fluoride uses cadmium metal, acetic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and hydrogen fluoride as the major feedstock. The changes in the market dynamics of these raw materials affect its manufacturing.

The sourcing of cadmium metal is affected by factors like availability and cost of raw materials, market demand, environmental regulations, etc. The changes in the cost and availability of its raw materials like cadmium-containing ores (procurement of cadmium-containing ores is directly influenced by the cadmium-to-zinc ratio in zinc deposits) and cadmium oxide (sourcing of cadmium vapor or oxide is affected by strict environmental controls during zinc smelting and refining because of toxicity risk) affect its production costs. The fluctuations in its demand in downstream industries like NiCd batteries, alloys, anti-corrosion plating, pigments, PVC stabilizers, etc., affect its availability. Strict environmental policies and regulations on cadmium usage, emissions, and waste management increase procurement costs.

Acetic acid is another raw material used in the manufacturing of cadmium fluoride. The changes in the cost and availability of its raw materials like methanol (the cost of feedstocks used in methanol production like natural gas and biomass affects its procurement) and carbon monoxide (efficiency of production methods like steam reforming of natural gas or coal gasification impacts carbon monoxide procurement) affect its production costs. The fluctuations in its demand in downstream industries like food, pharmaceuticals, and chemical manufacturing affect its availability. Strict environmental policies and regulations on handling hazardous methanol or acetic acid vapors and workplace safety standards increase procurement costs.

The procurement of hydrogen peroxide is affected by the availability and cost of hydrogen gas impacts its production costs. The changes in demand from industries like paper, textiles, water treatment, and semiconductors affect its availability. Environmental regulations on emissions and workplace safety compliance increase production costs, mainly for handling concentrated hydrogen peroxide adds up to procurement costs.

Hydrogen fluoride (another major feedstock used in the manufacturing of cadmium fluoride) procurement is influenced by the cost and availability of its raw material, fluorite (supply disruptions in key mining regions like China directly impact fluorite production). The efficiency of production methods using sulfuric acid and fluorite, along with energy-intensive processes, affects operational costs. The fluctuations in demand from downstream industries like electronics, refrigerants, and fluorochemicals affect market availability. Strict environmental regulations on handling toxic HF vapors, workplace safety standards for corrosive substances, and emission controls during production or waste disposal increase procurement costs.

Manufacturing Process

This report comprises a thorough value chain evaluation for Cadmium Fluoride manufacturing and consists of an in-depth production cost analysis revolving around industrial Cadmium Fluoride manufacturing.

• From Cadmium Metal, Acetic Acid, Hydrogen Peroxide, and Hydrogen Fluoride: The feedstock for this process includes cadmium metal, acetic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and hydrogen fluoride.

The manufacturing process of cadmium fluoride involves several steps. First, cadmium metal is reacted with acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide to produce cadmium acetate. This intermediate is then treated with hydrogen fluoride, which results in the formation of cadmium fluoride. The product is heated up to its melting point in an atmosphere of carbon tetrafluoride. This step removes any residual water, oxides, and oxyfluoride impurities, giving pure cadmium fluoride as the final product.
 

Properties of Cadmium Fluoride

Cadmium fluoride has a molecular formula of CdF2 and a molecular weight of 150.41 g/mol. It is a white powder or colorless crystalline solid with a cubic crystal structure. It has a density of approximately 6.33 g/cm³ at room temperature. It has a melting point of around 1049 to 1110 degree Celsius and a boiling point of 1748 degree Celsius. It is moderately soluble in water and soluble in hydrofluoric acid and other mineral acids but practically insoluble in ethanol, liquid ammonia, and alkaline solutions. It is stable under normal conditions but can react with strong oxidizers and caustic substances to form basic cadmium fluoride compounds. It reacts violently with potassium metal and hydrolyzes at high temperatures in the presence of water vapor. All these physical and chemical properties make it useful in phosphors, glass manufacturing, nuclear reactors, and laser technologies.
